With another year on the rise, fashionistas begin to stack their closets full of the latest and greatest trends.

Spring lingers in the distance, as consumers try and get their last use out of their winter coats and boots. Being from Texas, our winters aren’t always as chilly as some, but there’s still ways you can accessorize and achieve the winter look.

First off, trendy jackets are always in style for the winter, but now some stores are starting to add a unique twist on a classic ensemble. Sequins, fringe and lace are among the materials being added on to outerwear. Many Hollywood stars have caught on to the trend as well, with some pairing a sequin jacket with a solid colored shirt — to add a pop of color — and dark denim jeans.

Who doesn’t love clothes that are cute and keep you warm as well? This look allows you to dress it up or down by adding heels to an already flashy piece of clothing.

Some footwear that is becoming more prevalent in store front windows this year is the pointed ballet flat. These shoes are very striking when you walk and are popular in the UK and other European countries and now the trend has landed in the U.S.

Pointed flats are all the rage this season.

These shoes can’t be worn with just anything. You can pair them with a classic V-neck and cropped jeans or a sweater with leggings. More and more colors are starting to come out for the spring but there’s still a variety of winter colors to choose from such as black, brown, and taupe. If you want to be unique and stay with the trends, then this style of shoe is perfect for you!

This time of year is all about the darker colors, which explains why dark red lipstick is very in right now. We all want a pop of color on our face or an area of our makeup to stand out in some way. Red is perfect for the winter holidays along with welcoming a fresh start to the New Year.
